RETURN TO THE: BIBLE PAPERS HOME PAGE
This paper discusses the Triunity of the Godhead: Father, Son (Jesus) and Holy Spirit. All scriptures are from the King James' Version Bible except where noted.
INDUCTIVE COMMENTS:
THEME: The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob says his name from all eternity is Jesus. He has showed himself as the angel of the Lord in the Old Testament and as the man Jesus in the New Testament.
John 1:1 Jesus always has been: past to future as He is the one God.
John 1:14 Jesus likewise has always been and then tells us what he has done. Jesus is also called I AM.
Colossians 3:17 Doing anything for Jesus is doing it for the Father & God.
Hebrews 1:2-3 Jesus is the express image and "exact representation of the being (Hebrews 1:3 NIV)" of the Triunity God. There are many names (titles) for God: I AM, Jehovah, Elohim & Lord. But, the only name we know God by is Jesus.
PURPOSE:
Seeing Jesus is seeing all of Godhead. No, Jesus is not the Father or Holy Spirit, but Jesus is God. You can not divide God, saying there are three persons. This is not found in the scriptures. You can not compare God to a leaf or three states of water. God is one. To see Jesus is to see all of the Godhead bodily. If a person could see the Father or Spirit, he would see Jesus also. God is omni-present: in all places at the same time.
John 14:8-9 Jesus says you see me you see the Father or Triunity God.
John 17:22 So let us say what the Bible says. Jesus, the Father, and the Holy Spirit are one. The fullness of Jesus included the fullness of the Holy Spirit. Jesus is the rod out of Jesse and Branch who has all seven spirits of the Holy Spirit shown in Is 11:1-2 & Rev 1:4.
Isaiah 11:1-2 See also Revelation 1:4.
Isaiah 9:6-7 Jesus, Father, Spirit
KEY VERSE:
Romans 1:20 God has allowed us to understand his Godhead by His word the Bible.
John 8:58 Jesus is the I am eternally present God.
John 14:6
Revelation 1:18 Jesus controls the keys of who dies & goes to hell.
WHO: God mainly by Bible authors Moses, Isaiah, Luke, John, and Paul
TO WHOM: Elected Christians
WHAT: Jesus is the revealed one God of the Bible to be understood by mankind as God.
John 14:8-9 Jesus says you see me you see the Father or Triunity God.
John 17:22 So let us say what the Bible says. Jesus, the Father, and the Holy Spirit are one. The fullness of Jesus included the fullness of the Holy Spirit. Jesus is the rod out of Jesse and Branch who has all seven spirits of the Holy Spirit shown in Is 11:1-2 & Rev 1:4.
Romans 1:20 God has allowed us to understand his Godhead by His word the Bible.
WHY: The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob says his name from all eternity is Jesus. He has showed himself as the angel of the Lord in the Old Testament and as the man Jesus in the New Testament. God says in Hebrews 1:2-3:
Hebrews 1:2-3 Jesus is the express image and "exact representation of the being (Hebrews 1:3 NIV)" of the Triunity God. There are many names (titles) for God: I AM, Jehovah, Elohim & Lord. But, the only name we know God by is Jesus.
Colossians 3:17 Doing anything for Jesus is doing it for the Father & God.
WAY: God says us and our and then one. What is the answer? The Hebrew word for one is Achad which means united one. This starts to clear up how God is both us and our and only one. He is a Triunity God.
Genesis 1:26
Deuteronomy 6:4
WHEREAS: I am going to show that the Angel of the Lord, which man has seen, is God and Jesus.

Mark 12:26
Exodus 13:21
Exodus 14:19 The Lord and the angel of God were in the pillar. They are the same.
Joshua 5:13-15 Joshua worshipped the angel. The shoe/holy ground incident is similar to what Moses had experienced in Exodus 3:5 above at the tree that was not consumed. Joshua saw God and did not die. Angel's wouldn't allow worship.
WHERE: God is everywhere at the same time or omnipresent in the universe, hell, heaven, and earth.
WHEN: God always existed and will exist forever.
Genesis 1:1 The Bible does not try to explain where God came from, but states that He always has been & then tells us what he has done.
WHILE: What is the name of the Father? Jesus
Exodus 23:20-21 Only God can pardon transgressions. God's name (Jesus) is in him.
John 17:11 (New International version Bible)
WANT: God shows Himself in both the Old and New Testaments.

Isaiah 48:16 Jesus is speaking. The Father and the Holy Spirit have sent Jesus. Presented was the united one God in his three manifestations. How do we describe the one God? Below, is shown a further insight into the Godhead.
Colossians 1:19 What fulness is Paul speaking of? All Godhead.
Colossians 2:9 The entire Godhead of Father, Son & Holy Spirit.

V) THE HOLY SPIRIT, FATHER, AND JESUS IN THE OLD TESTAMENT:
A) HOLY SPIRIT:
Genesis 1:1-2 The Holy Spirit took part in the creation.
Exodus 31:1-3 The Holy Spirit was needed to do the job.
Psalms 51:11 God's Spirit is part of his relationship.
Isaiah 63:10-14 Sins against God are also against his Holy Spirit.
B) FATHER:
Deuteronomy 32:6 The Father created man.
Malachi 2:10 The entire Triunity Godhead of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is the creator. However, only one God exist. They are one and Jesus prayed for us to be one in John 17:22. He gave us the glory of God.
C) JESUS:
I am going to show that the Angel of the Lord, which man has seen, is God and Jesus.
Exodus 3:2
Jesus confirmed that God spoke from the bush. 3:2 above says the angle of the Lord was in the bush. The angel of the Lord is God.
Mark 12:26
Exodus 13:21
Exodus 14:19 The Lord and the angel of God were in the pillar. They are the same.
Joshua 5:13-15 Joshua worshipped the angel. The shoe/holy ground incident is similar to what Moses had experienced in Exodus 3:5 above at the tree that was not consumed. Joshua saw God and did not die. Angel's wouldn't allow worship.
Revelation 19:10 Angel stopped John.
Further scriptures to prove who the angel of the Lord is, are Genesis 18; Judges 13 and Genesis 22:11-12, 15-17. The last scripture is Gideon's encounter with God and feared he would die.
Judges 6:22-23
Acts 27:23 Paul served Jesus (angel of God).
Galatians 4:14 "And my temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, <even> as Christ Jesus." Paul says the angel of God is Jesus.
VI) GOD'S NAME: JESUS
Exodus 23:20-21 Only God can pardon transgressions. God's name (Jesus) is in him.
John 17:11 (New International version Bible) What is the name of the Father? Jesus
VII) THE UNITED ONE GOD IS PRESENT IN EVERY GODLY ACTION
A) CREATION:
Job 33:4 Holy Spirit & Father are creators.
Colossians 1:16 Jesus is creator.
B) WITHIN A BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN:
John 14:23
Acts 1:5 Since the Triunity Godhead can't be separated, the Godhead is in a Christian.
Acts 1:8 They were Baptized with the Holy Spirit on Pentecost when the Spirit came within them in a second encounter. 50 days earlier, Jesus breathed on them the Holy Spirit and they were saved/born again since Jesus was now the risen Lord.
John 20:22
VIII) THE UNITED ONE GOD PRESENTED IN TWO OLD TESTAMENT SCRIPTURES:
Isaiah 63:8-10 The Father is calling them his children. Jesus is the angel who saved and redeemed them. The Holy Spirit is vexed by them.
Isaiah 48:16 Jesus is speaking. The Father and the Holy Spirit have sent Jesus. Presented was the united one God in his three manifestations. How do we describe the one God? Below, is shown a further insight into the Godhead.
IX) THE TRIUNITY OF GOD (NOT TRINITY). THE UNDIVIDED GODHEAD-NOT THREE GODS:
Colossians 1:19 What fulness is Paul speaking of? All Godhead.
Colossians 2:9 The entire Godhead of Father, Son & Holy Spirit.
Therefore, seeing Jesus is seeing all of God. No, Jesus is not the Father or Holy Spirit, but Jesus is God. You can not divide God, saying there are three persons. This is not found in the scriptures. You can not compare God to a leaf or three states of water. God is one. To see Jesus is to see all of the Godhead bodily. If a person could see the Father or Spirit, he would see Jesus also. God is omni-present: in all places at the same time.
John 14:8-9 Jesus says you see me you see the Father or Triunity God.
John 17:22 So let us say what the Bible says. Jesus, the Father, and the Holy Spirit are one. The fullness of Jesus included the fullness of the Holy Spirit. Jesus is the rod out of Jesse and Branch who has all seven spirits of the Holy Spirit shown in Is 11:1-2 & Rev 1:4.
Isaiah 11:1-2 See also Revelation 1:4.
Isaiah 9:6-7 Jesus, Father, Spirit
Isaiah 7:14 Immanuel means God with us. The entire Godhead.
Luke 1:31 Jesus means savior and healer. Jesus has Holy Ghost seed from birth Luke 1:35.
X) SUMMARY:
The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob says his name from all eternity is Jesus. He has showed himself as the angel of the Lord in the Old Testament and as the man Jesus in the New Testament. God says in Hebrews 1:2-3:
Hebrews 1:2-3 The Triunity God. There are many names (titles) for God: I AM, Jehovah, Elohim & Lord. But, the only name we know God by is Jesus.
Colossians 3:17 Doing anything for Jesus is doing it for the Father & God.
I pray this paper would remove the three God images that the world sees in many Christians. God would enlighten you and give you an encounter with who Jesus really is. Praise the Lord Jesus Christ.
